PAGE FOUR THE ARMY POST MURDERS Rv Virgin The Characters Katherine Cornish, myself, vis- iting Elizabeth on a mid-western Army post. Elizabeth, Colonel Wright’s daughter. Adam Drew, acting command- ing officer. Yesterday: The sentry is killed by a stone while he is trying to tell Adam something about a balloon, Chapter 28 The Notebook ] WENT up the stairs after Adam. ‘«:) Barney, in pajamas and dress- Ing gown, wasa dark huddle under {the front window. Adam was sit- ting on his haunches looking down at him helplessly. He turned at my entrance, “Can’t make it out. He’s got a good strong pulse, breathing nor- mally. Just seems to be out cold.” “Maybe he fainted—I thought he was going to once or twice this evening.” Adam said, “Maybe.” Then, in a loud, cheerful voice: “Well, Doc will be here in a minute, anyway. He can dope it out.” The rooms were like Charlie’s, but neater. There were curtains, dingy but clean, at the windows. The furniture was substantially the same. There were no pictures at all, but there were books. A set of shelves between the front win- dow and the hall door was full of rather abstruse titles—the usual military tomes, old textbooks; a few more indicative of personal taste: The Human Mind, The Hu- man Body, Outline of Science, Origin of Species, Mind in the Making, books on floriculture, on horse breeding. ... My eye jumped from the lower shelf to the floor at my feet. A little brown notebook, halfway under the bookcase, not far from Barney’s outstretched hand. I pick- _ed it up, riffled the pages, feeling no sense of impropriety, not yet formulating my new knowledge that ordinary standards of good taste were never meant to deal with murder. Less than a score of pages were filled with a cramped but legible script. At the top of the first page four words were blacked in. A reminder? A thesis? “POINT OF ATTACK: RETICENCES.” I read on: “Why have the Orpingtons no children? They are both healthy. And she likes kids—have seen her watching them at the playground, but always evasive when the sub- ject is mentioned. Must see if I ean find out if they ever had a child; someone in the service would know—unless married be- fore he came in. “Note: Lou has a tic. Have seen her try to d@guise it by jerking her head and laughing without reason.” Adam was prowling around the Toom, casting occasional worried lances at Barney’s motionless form. “Come here,” I called to him softly. “What do you make of this?” He came and glanced over my shoulder. “Looks like Barney’s writing. T held it still while he read and watched his face covertly. His eyes were very bright—with that hunting gleam. He came to the end of the page and turned it, his long-fingered, vital hand covering mine in the most impersonal of contacts. ‘Nothing Hit Me’ “EJE MUST have had it in his hand,” I said and showed him where I had found the notebook. He took it from me and was turning another page when we both heard steps in the downstairs hall, I saw him close the notebook and slip it into the pocket of his white slacks that still managed’ to look crisp and immaculate. Then he was leaning over the railing and calling for Doc Moore. That young.man carried author- ity with him. He came in with his little black bag, irspected me with a quick, professional, but not un- friendly eye, and knelt beside Bar- ney. Adam crouched near him and some wordless communication assed between them. I saw Doc loore turn back Barney’s eyelids, touch the cornea. Then he took a a tiny pencil flashlight from his bag, shone it full into the eye, and I could see that the pupil did not contract. “No fake about that,” he said cheerfully and took out his steth- oscope. After listening for a long moment he put it aside and parted the rather thick golden hair that lay so close against Barney’s scalp, ia Hanson exploring the skull with sensitive, practiced fingers. “Slight contusion on the side of the head,” he observed suddenly. “No fracture that I can find.” “Enough to knock him out?” Adam asked. “Hard to tell. He tht have fainted—did it once re this summer—struck his head on some- thing when he fell.” He applied the sethoaree again, dropped it with a dissat fied expression. _Barney came out of it suddenly, like these people who wake all at once and jump out of bed with all their faculties. He sat up, glanced from Adam to the doctor, said, “What's happened?” “You're asking us?” Adam fetched a bed pillow from the other room, and over his pro- tests they forced him to lie down again. “What's under me?” he asked fretfully, writhing a hand under the small of his back. It came out clutching something which he sub- jected to puzzled scrutiny. “Where did that come from?” Adam whistled softly. I craned for a glimpse. It was a smooth stone, white- washed, smoke smudged. “That accounts for your faint,” observed Adam grimly. “Quarter of an inch to one side and you pouan be asking what hap- pened.” Barney stared. “What are you talking about?” “Mean to say you don’t remem- ber this thing hitting you?” “Nothing hit me,” Barney = tested irritably. “I couldn’t 1D —dozed off, woke up—too hot in here. I got up, put on my. dressing gown, was going to look for. Then I saw Flower had forgotten to open this front window. It stuck, but I got it open, was reach- ing for that screen to put in when I passed out cold.” He appealed to the doctor. “Just like the other time... .” ‘Two Somethings’ ny or probably didn’t know what ly. “Open window—you were right in front of it.” _But Doc Moore was regardiny him with a bright, professiona! eye. “The window stuck, you say?” “Yes; I tell you nothing hit me,” he insisted. “Then where did that stone come from?” Adam asked sensibly. Barney said, “Search me,” sat up and began looking aay arot the room. His hand explored his dressing-robe pocket, hts glance Toved. cj The notebook—he had missed it was looking for it. But he sai nothing, and neither did Adam. Barney observed me suddenly. His eyes had passed back and forth across me; th. ” now rested on me in surprise unmixed with welcome. “T'll wait in the car,” I said faint- ly and fled to the hall, feeling une After all, what was I doing ere? Adam overtook me. “Put up the car windows and lock the doors. I’ll be with you in a second.” “Don’t worry about me—the murderer had one good chance to eliminate me and didn’t.” “Don’t be a fool,” Adam retorted. “This murder business grows on one. ‘Here, keep this. I’ve a hunch it can tell us something.” And he thrust the notebook into my hands. “Maybe two somethings.” “What do you mean?” “Motive—and who was Ethel Curtis.” He turned and vanished into Barney’s rooms, The downstairs hall was empty except for Charlie. He was moodily at the whitewashed stone and by no sign betrayed that he was aware of my presence. I went past him and out into the night. The big brownish ambulance was pulling away from the curb. I shut and locked the car doors and rolled up the windows, enclos- ing a cube of the sweltering \5 The stars were gone, blanketed by thick, impenetrable clouds that‘ | hung heavy and low and steaming, reluctant to let fall one drop on the suffocating earth. _. The night was too long—out of it had come too much horror. In spite of my brave words to Adam I was afraid there alone in the dark. Limp bodies, contorted faces swam past me in an endless, mov- ing frieze—and faces, normal friendly faces of the people I had been with, came at me with mur- derous eyes. Behind some one of those apgclonaly lurked diabolic guil called the night's atrocities I was sick with terror and loa’ and with longing for the night to be one.
